The edge is made too steep and the angle too obtuse; the consequence is that the edge in cutting is sometimes unmanageable and driven into the quill neatly across. This inconvenience almost every Versonin the habit of making pens has frequently experienced. ro obviate this entirely, T. CLARK, of lower 'Change, has introduced a Penknife Blade, manufactured entirely , on a new principle ; the line of the edge being parallel with the side of the.blatle forms a very acute angle : the instrument, therefore, even in inexperienced hapds, may be easily governed ; no cut. ting but what is intended can take place, and the Pen is form ed with the greatest nicety and the utmost facility. The blade: of this Penknife is beautiful in workmanship, and can be recom mended with confidence, as superior to any article previously introduced into this . branch of Cutlery. Also can be used with the right'or left hand.—The blades are made from refined silver steel.

The civil division of the ,Kingdoni of England, for the better adininistra't L iOn of justice, has (Alen been a subject of just admiration. Through a succession of ages and a succession of changes, and under every va riety of government which • haS at different times held the rule in England, the civil division, originally in troduced by the patriotic Alfred, was preserved; and found in every respect to secure the object for Which it was instituted. Out of this civil: division into counties three have _been allowed a pre-eminence over the others, and are distinguished by the term Counties Palatine.. These are clieshire, Lancashire, and the county of Durham, and vested in the fellow ing persons—the Earl of Chester, the Duke of Lan caster, and the BiShop of Durham. The two former .of these are now utiited to the Crown, and the third alone remains in the handS of . a *Oka: Besides these three, two others were in former times also Counties Palatine, viz. Pembrokeshire and 'Hexham- Shire, now part,, of the county of Northumberland ; but they have been long since abolished by Acts passed in the reigns of Henry VIII. and Elizabeth, The reason for the erection of Chester and Durham into Counties Palatine was in order to admit of kis, tice being administered to thei r i n h a bit ants in their . Own houses, lest, a s they bo r de re d upo n t.lelost..o 1 a Counties of Wales and gentland, the enemy should take advantage 'of the absence of the chief - men of the place, and make a sudden irruption into their country. The term. Palatine is derived Of palatio, be cause the heads 'of therft eiereiser a royal authority 'within their extent as fully as the King had it in his palace, and part of which authority is`still retained, al though, for the sake of convenience; a great many of their minor privileges have been taken away. They have distinct officers of St a te attached t o the m , and Courts of JuStice having original jurisdiction. The County Palatine of Lancaster became forfeited 'to the Crown by the attainder of Henry VI., bin 'by Act of Pal-1111104'0e County Palatine WaS preserved and annexed to the Duchy, and vested in-Edward IV. and his heirs; Kings of England. In the Ist Henry VII - , another Act resumed part of the lairds which h a d b een dissevered 'front the May in the reign of Ed war d IV., and the inheritade was vested in the King and, his heirs for ever, as amply and largely, and in like manner, form, and' condition, separate from the Crown or England and possession of the sine, as the three Henries and Edward' IV. had and held the sane. But for this proviSion the County Palatine would have lost its privileges, for, vesting in . the King, the minor juris diction as Duke of Lancaster would merge In the higher authority as King of England: Cheshire still retains its yrivilegea because it belongs more properly to the Princes of. Wales than thy King of England, and who ever since the reign of -Henrylll. has held the title of Earl of Chester. Durham, as now, being in the hands of a subject, holds its regalitieS still,, and this by virtue of a decision of a body of commissioners dispatched to Ilardepole, in the same county, at the request of the then Bishop, and whose royal authority, it seems, was at that time disputetL It would be im possible to enter into athe'rights 'and immunities conferred on these counties as Palatines of the &ll pire ; they are far too numerous, and, moreover, greatly encumbered with legal and highly-refined distinctionS. However useful they have been in former days,' it ap pears that now they could be prOductiVe 'Of little ad vantage ; and we can hardly help expressing•our asto nishment that they have not excited the attention of the. Parliament, or the more vigilant and scrutinizing eye of the public. We do not -mean to say that any case of mischief could be made against them, but there, are very many reasons that. conspire to render their abolition desirable : they interfere greatly with the administration of justice, and questions of right, as between the Kin g as Duke or Earl, and the King as King, and between the King and the Bishop, in the exercise of their respective authorities, are often dis cussed at the expense of parties, plaintiffs and de fendants in .• 'Alit, and in which, oddly enough, the. rights of these litigant parties are totally forgotten, or, at least: 0vt...4. 904 ( 1, - When Republicanism prevailed in England, and Old Noll reigned Lord High Pro.; tector of merry England, it is wonderful nothing was done with these remains of royalty, so' as to require the ameliorating hand of a Royal Parliament to attention Or a ppe a ri ng amend, %it salt is ; nothing of the k to in h d al i , s e to bee b l e l Massedfound in over, history,ne v an ch d a i ll h e e n y gi s n e g e mOf sil ffi cient importa n c e to can for summa r y proceed ings without it. Thus on the Restoration they slid untwisted into their .ancient prerogatiyes,,and so have remained and continued even unto this day ;~ and doubtless will so remain aid continue, until Some great' queStiOn arisc'as to the jurisdiction of one of them, replete .with misaief to the parties, i n a suit instituted either in the Courts of Westminster ; or one of the superior' Courts of one of - the .Cd tu i t i6 s p a l a tine. FOREIGN CORN. Mr. JACOB'S REPORT on the TRADE, in CORN, and on the AGRICULTCRE of the NORTH of EVROPE. [Continued from our paper of yesterday.] The lands of the crown are differently circumstanced ; they comprehend oue-third of the whole surface, or about 10,000,000 acres ; somewhat more than 2,000,000 of these are woods, which are managed by a' department of the Government. 'he remain der is chiefly arable land, and is leased to tenants. The labour of the peasants is a part of that which is leased. The tenants of the crown arc exempt, as well as their peasants, from mane taxes, to which all other Occupiers of land are subject, and In COIVIL pience of it the estatca are better stocked with peasants. Wow, as I was assured by the chief of the department, that the pea sants on the croupr lands form nearly one-ft:unit of the wholi, population of the kingdom. To the farmers of these, this must be a great advantage, which hut few, and only the richest and humane lords, can partake with them. With this fre!.thu from taxation, and ample analv of labour. er4, the /ands are let vett - law ; the nominal rent 48,600,000 of acres of land is stated in the public accounts to be 4i000,600 florins, or about 93,000/. sterling, or somewhat less than three pence the English sent. In the average are ineltuksl many acres literally of no,value. I was informed that the land actually 'un der cultivation might he. fairly stated to be worth from eight pence to fourteen-pence per acre. It is however tbund that the present rent cannot be afforded, that the tenants are falling into arrears, that the hope of recovering some parts must be aban doned ; and in other eases, the rent can only be paid in corn.— The woods belonging to the crown, consisting, as before stated, of more than 2,000,000 acres, and under the administration of a public board, are felled in portions annually, so as to cut them every 50 years. The 50th part which was cut last year, (the price of wood having improved,) produced, es stated to me by the chief of the department, the sutn of 48,000/. iferlin;T, being at the. rate of .fivepence halfpeney the acre r ou the whot: of the woods, or 21s. on the part actually cut. So little land belonginglo individuals is set, that it is difficult l to form an opinion of what' is its iettuil average annual That it is much lower than formerly I have no (ILIA. One instance came under ray own observation. The proprte tor of a large domain had let a farm, consisting of about 7,000 acres, on a lease, for the usual term of six years, at a rent of 8501. That lease bad expired just behi.e I visited the place. Ile tenant had lost a great deal of his property, and . the pea sants had diminished in number; and a new lease Ism! lwen taken by the same tenant, for no other could be found, at the • rate of 1701. I knew of one farm of aboUt 4,000 acres, let on a lease for Aix years, about four years ago, tbr 1801. To e, p ro prietor of it assured me, that thou7,ll he receiVed his rent regularly; he was convinced the tenant paid' the whole of it out of his capital, and Was only enabled to maintain his engagenients from having other pursuits which were profitable, This estate is net more than 12 Miles from Warsaw, and has an excellent road ti, u ithmn one mile of it. Another instance of an estate re(iiltly , let oh ,lease, Was related to me by the gentleniati who had engaged totalmit, It consista Of about 2,800 English acres; two-seyeiths of it is water meadow, on the banks of the Vistula, prodiicing good - hay . ; about 300 acres are woodland, and the rest aralife There is a castle or ca pital mansion on it, which I belieWiviasi the chief motive for taking it. The not agreed for wiivabOut 951: a year. The lessee, who is engaged in other pursuits, told me he .should, try the experiment of worki4tg the land by hired annual labourers, to he. paid in tourney. Hero posed to keep a flock of 400 M u 'ritat sheep, and a dairy of 50 milch cows, fur the butter of which he flattered himself he should find a vent in a neighbouring inanufini turing town. • • Time two last instance appeared to nee to beexcxptiona. to the general rate of value of rtnW land; and 1 slitudd rather esti mate the average to he much nearer that price at which the lands ofthe Government are let. There is, in fact, scarcely any of the class of capitalists, as is familiar to us in England, by the term of farmer. The state of society is totally dif f erent. Among the real Poles, there is no regular gradation of ranks between the noble proprietor and wretched peasantry. There way be, and visibly are, differ -clam in the condition of the peasantry depending on the personal character of their lords, and upon the more or less embarrassed state of the property on wideli . they may be settled. There iv also a difference between the landed pro prietors, owing to the different degrees of activity, economy, and attention that they exerciseJ but there is not a middle class of Poles, The Polish gentry are too proud to follow any course but the military career; and the Gevernment, by its large standing army, encourages the feeling, though the pay is scarcely sufficient to supply the officers with their expensive unifertim The church has too firer prizes,, aiming many thousand hlaiiks, to induce any but the lower classes to enter on that profession. The offices of Government can employ but few, and those are ill paid, and said to depend on small /*vitiation rather than on their salaries. What ever difficulties may present themselves to the placing out young men of good family, none have had recourses to commerce ; ,and if they had, such would be treated by offices at having lust their caste, and descended to a lower rank of sodety. Thu maniniie tongs and the artisans in Pnlnnd are tainost allot the German nation. • If a joiner, painter, mason, tailor, aboefnaket, or a per., son of other similar occupations, iminding, too, the misfire' pr,o, 1004" is wanted, lie will commonly be found only among the Germans. The merchants, bankers, and traders, are nearly as exclusively of the Jewish race; hsul that, ton, of all classes, from the importer of wines and eolonial produee to the dealer in raga and old clothes ; from the monied man wi) traffics in foreign loans and foreign exchange,, down to the' ender of small sums,. which the poor can obtain by pledging their miserable furniture or implements. Examples have been recently set by, some individuals of the' first families and' wealth, of eitablishing manufactories, by form- Log co lonies, with is view of raising a race of consumers on their domains, among whom a vent may be created for the produc tions of the soil ; but they have, in almost ever y i ns t ance , em ployed foreigners to conduct their concerns, awl to perform all the work abOve the lowest kindi of • drudgery. The Gertnans look too earnestly forward to a return to their own coUntry, , with the money they acquire, to invest it in cultivation; and the. Jews are: not disposed to engage in agricultural, or in any pursuits or oecupations in which' their shrewdness in making bargains would be of less avail than the practice of bard labour and the Most rigid econonty When estates are sold, the growing timber, houso, and hone are not the subjects of a separate valuation, but are included iu one sum in the purchase. The buildings on estates are, of neces sity, more numerous and more extensive than are required in this country. Front the indolent manner in which all labour is per formed, a greater number of cottages is indispensable for the work men. The corn is seldom or never formed in stacks in the open air, but is howll in barns, and the same is the case with the bay. The Snow is so deep in'the winter, that there is no food for cattle to he found in the tields; and such is the severity of the cold, that it is indispensable to build houses large enough to contain the whole hems of cattle, and die whole flocks of sheep. Besides the severity. of the climate, the number ;of wolves is so great, and, in spite of all excitement by, the Government to destroy ,them, is so fast increasing, that no, cattle can be left in 'the fields in the whiter. These animals range the country in bodies of front foni to fourteen; and when pressed by hunger, will ,attack any of the dioneriticated animals and, indeed, nn winter paises with opt several bliman beings, partictilurly 4tildrep, falling a sneri their voracity. iiistonces, it is said; are nut uncom mon of wolves undermining the kundation of sheep-honses to get at their pory. Prom these circmnstunces, the relative expence true building on estates, compared to the value of the mere land, in spite of the low price of timber of which those buildings are chiefly construct ed, is greater than With us.

CORN ,LAWS. The Earl ofI 4 IALMESBURY 4 in moving for Returns of the price of Wheat in 1823;1824, 1825, and the first four inooths.of 1826, complained that the important Report of Mr. Jacob' tVas not before the House, although it had already appeared in seine of the newspapers. He regretted that none of his Majesty's Mi 'sisters were present, es he meant to give a sort of notice that in order to remove the imputation east upon the landed interest, he should like, before going into the measures propostd by the Go vernment, something like inquiry into the causes of Site preient distrust, which would show it to be no more eenneeted with the Corn Laws than with the _Motes of the Moon. Be-+ sides this there w e re mil other. important matters to be taken into considerat;on, such as the price at which it might be neces sary to admit foreign Corn. In order to bring all these before the House, he should on Monday next, unless stone Noble Peer, better able to treat the subject, should take it out of his hands,- propose a Resolution to the following effect That though it might be necessary to admit foreign Corn in Easel et a duty Ito be afterwards determined upon by that House, it entild.' not proceed to the consideration of any farther alteration or Snspension of'the Corn Laws, without an inquiry into the necessity of such anal- teration or suspension, and a due investigation of the effects which they might have on the Landed Interest and the Consumers," The Earl of LIMERICK had 'said yesterday; that the price of Corn in Ireland was forty-six shillings per, quarter ; he had sipee learned that it was only forty-three' shilling*. Ile felt athiti'' at the matures proposed by his Majesty's Ministers; and this alarm was not confined to himself, for no sooner best they lasso heard of than the price of Wheat in Mark-late: 114+1 fallen ten shillings per load, or two shillings per quarter. Lord ELLENBOROUGH feared that the Nohle Earl opposite ,(Earl Malmeibury) would fell into the trap which the eneinteS of the Corn Laws had laid. Ile alluthsl to the Report of Mr. I.lacob, which formed a very interesting book of travels`, but to which the Noble Earl seemed to attach too It was impossible not to see that the countries bordering eta the Baltic did not form one ones-lifth of those that would send corn to this if importation were permitted, and yet inenb's Report embraced no other, and left out the Netherlands, France, POrtu gal, Spain, Italy, Africa, mud America, to treat only of Pin4ra nitt and Poland ? lie also feared that to adopt the first mt:inture• proposed by GoVernmettt would be exhibited to call the lielnd into operation.
